Shlomo YisraeliHOST
He spoke about Yaakov and Yisrael, that the two elements, even in Yaakov, which ends up being the main Av of Klal Yisrael, that by itself has the highs and lows.
Shlomo YisraeliHOST
And on a low, Ekev is the heel.
Shlomo YisraeliHOST
That's when we are at a low, basically, in the galut, when you have to deal with, you have to be dealing with Esavs and Lavans and so on.
Shlomo YisraeliHOST
But then when we triumph, when we have Yaakov Avinu fight with Sarosh El Esav, a spiritual fight, and we triumph in that spiritual fight, the name becomes Yisrael.
David MilstonHOST
On the left-hand side you can see, according to Parshas, and you can see what I've written what I've written as a summary of those sections.
David MilstonHOST
So if you look in the first three parshas, Dvarim, Be'etchanan and Ekev, these are words of rebuke.
David MilstonHOST
Very, very interesting rebuke.
David MilstonHOST
Very interesting.
Binyomin WeinribHOST
to go ahead and start again and again and again.
Binyomin WeinribHOST
But every time it's Ekev, Mamashuk, the real, real, real skatches.
AvtzonHOST
When all the Israelites come to appear before Hashem, your God, and in the place he will choose, i.e. the temple, you, Yeshua, as their king, and likewise the kings that will come after you, must read from this Torah scroll before all of Israel loud enough so that they can hear it with their ears.
AvtzonHOST
put up a platform in the temple courtyard from which the king will read publicly from the beginning of the book of Devarim, Deuteronomy, until the end of the first paragraph of Shema, which is about five chapters, then skip to the second paragraph of Shema and the next parasha of Ekev, then skip and read the passage about tithing and Re'eh, then skip and read the second passage about deadlines for tithing, Kitavah, and skip and read the passages about blessing and curses, Kitavah, and then go back and read the passage about the king.
AvtzonHOST
Shoftim.
AvtzonHOST
Basically, you're going to go all around the book of Devarim and share various thoughts.
David BassousHOST
David al-Malik says, The sins of my heel will surround me.
David BassousHOST
What are the sins of one's heels? Says Rashi in Parashat Ekev.
David BassousHOST
Ekev in the end literally means Ekev is the end.
David BassousHOST
Yaakov, Ekev.
David BassousHOST
In the end you will listen, Hashem says.
David BassousHOST
Rashi says, these are the sins which a person tramples on with his
Daniel KalishHOST
So I want to share as follows.
Daniel KalishHOST
In Ekev, in Parashas Ekev, The Pasuk says, When you say in your heart, it's normal, a person is going to say, I can't, I'm afraid.
Daniel KalishHOST
There's too many, I'm so frightened.
Daniel KalishHOST
It's so scary in Eretz Yisrael.
Moshe TaraginHOST
What the word hayn means.
Moshe TaraginHOST
And Moshe says, why are you telling me I can't continue to live in this world and lead the Jewish people into Eretz Yisrael? After all, I use this word, Heyn, in Parsha's Devarim, in Parsha's Ekev, Heyn Lashem Elokeinu Hashemayim Ushmeh Hashemayim.
Moshe TaraginHOST
So this is the word I use to praise you.
Moshe TaraginHOST
This is my gift to you, the word Heyn.
Moshe TaraginHOST
So you think it's a gift, hein, but it's really a weapon.
Moshe TaraginHOST
that in the end will be your undoing, because you think it's a gift.
Moshe TaraginHOST
So the same word that Moshe thought he was using to praise Hashem, and he used to praise Hashem, in Parshas Devarim, in Parshas Ekev, in Parshas Shmos, way back when, when he was still a rookie, he used that phrase to criticize and to doubt the Jewish people, and therefore he was given his sentence, So there are a couple of things to unpack in this matter.
Moshe TaraginHOST
Number one, as much as we feel we're close to Hashem, as much as we praise Hashem, as much as we learn Torah, as much as we say, If our Ahavas Yisrael is diminished, and we question the Jewish people and their integrity, and we cast dispersion, and we say they're sinners, and we have a disparaging sense of the Jewish people, then we don't get to enter Eretz Yisrael.
Daniel KalishHOST
So I want to share as follows.
Daniel KalishHOST
In Eikev, in Parashas Eikev, The Pasuk says, When you say in your heart, it's normal, a person's going to say, I can't, I'm afraid.
Daniel KalishHOST
There's too many, I'm so frightened.
Daniel KalishHOST
It's so scary in Eretz Yisrael.
Yonah SklareHOST
Oh, in place of keeping the mitzvahs, you will be blessed.
Yonah SklareHOST
Right? Where else in all of Chumash do we find the expression Eikev? In place of keeping mitzvahs, someone's blessed.
Yonah SklareHOST
Well, I can find two Pesachim in Avraham's life where it says the word Eikev.
Yonah SklareHOST
One is at the end of Ayira in the Akedah story when it says...
Yonah SklareHOST
Hashem says, after the Akedah Tavram, He says, you're going to be blessed totally.
Yonah SklareHOST
And then later in Parshas told us, Hashem tells Yitzchak, Yitzchak, you're going to bless...
Yonah SklareHOST
The coincidence is too great.
Yonah SklareHOST
Eikev is an Avramic word twice.
Avraham ZajacHOST
And the list letter begins, the Altarebbe is writing that the goal of the letter is to arouse within me, within you, within us, the old love and fondness that every Jew felt and that we all have inside of us, but it needs to come more to the forefront.
Avraham ZajacHOST
And why is it that we have within us this love and this fondness of Eretz HaKadosh? So the Altarebbe begins by quoting a passage that we have in Eikev.
Avraham ZajacHOST
The passage reads that Tamid, that always, are the eyes of Hashem in it, referring specifically to the Holy Land, to Eretz Yisroel.
Avraham ZajacHOST
And the Alter Rebbe asks, well, when the year ends, so then the new year begins.
